The options senior leadership considers may be to sell it, give it a defined period to show or go, or take on the task of rehabilitation.

The quest to identify skill gaps among workers is a constant endeavor with no end date, but that’s what it means to grow a workforce.

This is easier to do in some roles, where the work done introduces the necessary skills to the employee, but in most cases, additional training is required to help the employee improve.
